Tokyo to Billund (HND–BLL) — Airlines, Schedules & Connections

Japanese passport holders enter Denmark visa-free for up to 90 days within any 180-day period across the Schengen area. No fee, no advance application. Passport must be valid for at least 3 months beyond your planned departure from the Schengen zone. You need proof of onward travel and sufficient funds for your stay.

At immigration, your passport is stamped on first entry into the Schengen area. The 90-day limit applies to total time in all 27 Schengen countries combined, not just Denmark. If you have already spent time in other Schengen countries on the same trip, subtract those days. For stays beyond 90 days, apply for a residence permit through the Danish Agency for International Recruitment and Integration (SIRI) before your visa-free period expires.
